What travelers are saying

"Great hotel and flexible about extending my flight, as I am attending a wedding outside of Paris. They would call back and email pretty promptly. However, BEWARE their condition and communication with the vendors/attractions with the trip is poor. They told me I would forfeit my airport transfer back which I was fine with BUT they didn’t cancel it, so the hotel lobby kept calling me, as well as an angry driver on my cellphone. The reason why I use travel agencies overseas is for them to coordinate everything for me especially when I call in for a special request - as that is their job. I also never received my toot bus ticket and had to call in for that. However, I did not receive my river cruise ticket. Doubt I’ll get a refund for that. The office hours are also crap and all over the place. Most likely will never use GVV again, even if I find a steal, because you got to be on your toes with this company. It is not smooth as you would think because you have to do everything yourself for requesting what you paid for or you don’t receive/have to do the explanations yourself."

What travelers are saying

"It's hard to describe how lucky we are to have been able to work with Stephanie in planning our honeymoon to Japan. From the very beginning, Stephanie was friendly, flexible, and an absolute wealth of knowledge. We had several meetings with her leading up to our trip to come up with the perfect itinerary. Throughout this, Stephanie was mindful of our budget, without sacrificing anything. During our trip, Audley was available at all hours to help with anything and everything which was such a relief to know we had that resource available to us. I truly cannot imagine having planned this trip without all of Stephanie's guidance and knowledge- and cannot imagine taking another big trip like this without the help of Audley. Thank you again!"

What travelers are saying

"Because I have Stage 4 cancer, I chose to spend the extra money for trip insurance in case my cancer recurred. When a scan showed that it had, I cancelled my trip. I sent to them the medical documents from the Mayo Clinic confirming my new diagnosis. They sent me an email telling me my oncologist needed to fill in a form. I asked my oncologist to do that and I submitted it by fax on April 6th. When I didn’t hear anything, I sent them more medical documentation and asked them to please push forward my refund as I have travel expenses from a clinical trial coming up. Several days later I received an email that they needed further documentation from my doctor. How much more documentation do you need than the patient has stage 4 metastatic cancer and is starting a clinical trial??? This is heartless to me. Please don’t plan to travel through Road Scholar if you’re medically vulnerable!!"

Small Ship Cruise

What travelers are saying

"Sad to see a once good tour company stumble and fall into mediocrity. That’s Tauck post-Covid. My May 2023 tour of Normandy, Brittany and the Loire Valley was done on the cheap by Tauck, yet cost me thousands of dollars extra as a solo traveler on a special small-group tour. 

5-star hotels switched to 3 and 4 (without any compensation or explanation)… many more meals “on your own”… lots of “self-guided” tours of museums and chateaux and castles we knew nothing about… airline quality “rubber chicken” dinners, not in hotel restaurants, but in sad and isolated business convention spaces… poorly-trained newer Tour Directors (like the one on this tour) with limited experience traveling outside her tiny Canadian village or dealing with people from diverse backgrounds. She even confessed that this was a second gig job that took her away from her own business back home! You get what Tauck pays for, but unfortunately, not what YOU pay for. 

Speaking to a “Guest Relations” agent was comically pointless. She tried to make everything my fault, which I now understand is par for the course with the “new” post-Covid Tauck. Please reconsider spending huge amounts of your hard-earned money on a tour company that has lost its way and no longer delivers."

Monaco Tour Selection Trips

  • Monaco is a small independent city-state. Most trips feature stops in Monaco, rather than entire trips dedicated to Monaco.
  • Monaco is often only a day trip, usually on tours with stops in Nice. Make sure to check how much time your tour spends in Monaco if you’re hoping for longer than a day trip.
  • Since it is a day trip for most tours, check the itinerary for what the tour has planned for Monaco. Tours choose a variety of activities, rather than free time. If you’re hoping to visit a particular attraction, make sure it’s on the itinerary!

Additional details

What should I pack for Monaco?

The first thing we always recommend bringing on any trip is a good pair of walking shoes. Especially in a place like Monaco, where most people get around by foot, the last thing you want is uncomfortable shoes. Monaco is a bit more upscale than most of Europe, so bringing clothes on the dressier side is recommended, especially in the evening.

Some places such as the casino and fancier dining have dress codes, so if you’re looking at going someone in particular, check in before and see what their requirements are. Monaco is known for dressing “smart,” so if you want to fit in, be mindful of what you wear.

In the warmer months, sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat are recommended to protect your body from the hot sun. If you plan on going to the beach, consider a cheap pair of flip flops or water shoes that can protect your feet from the pebble beach.

Locals in Monaco

Even though Monaco seems extremely small, people are surprised that the population hovers right below 40,000 as of April 2019. Less than 20% of those hold Monaco passports, or are Monégasque. Most of the population is international, with many of the population coming from France and Italy. You won’t find the Monégasque hanging out at the Casino, because they are barred from gambling.

Monaco makes their money from the casino profits and from tourism, which is how people living in Monaco live a tax-free life. This is why many one-percenters move to Monaco, for the tax benefits. Locals are friendly, and you’ll see many people out with their dogs or on their run.

Weather in Monaco

There really is no bad time to visit Monaco, as the weather is spectacular year round. In the winter, the highs may dip to mid to upper 50’s, and in the warmer months (Peak weather is July and August), you can expect averages around 80 degrees. There aren’t many rainy days in Monaco either.

You can expect 6 days of rain averagely in the late fall (October and November), but that’s the highest rain fall for the year. If you’re hoping to enjoy a nice swim in the Mediterranean, the best time to visit is August, when the sea has had time to warm up. The water temperature should be around 75 degrees Fahrenheit in the late summer.

When to Visit Monaco

Monaco has some pretty thrilling events, and with a place as glamorous as Monaco, you know it’s going to be a good time. Here are some noteworthy times to visit, if you want to experience some extravagant events.

  • The Monaco Grand Prix runs in late May.
  • The Monaco Yacht show takes place every September.
  • The Monte Carlo Opera runs from late October through February each year.
  • The Monaco Jazz Festival runs during late November.
  • Monaco’s National Festival also happens over a weekend in late November. Celebrate the city-state and the royal family with plenty of shows and fireworks.

Other Tips for Monaco Travel:

  • Monaco uses EURO currency.
  • If you’re a car fan, a good time to visit is at the end of May, when the Monaco Grand Prix is happening. This brings a lot of tourist, but is an exciting time to be in Monaco! There’s a lot of exciting nightlife, and huge yachts dock at the port, and throw parties.
  • There is no visa needed for those who have visa-free travel to the EU. Since Monaco is part of the Schengen region, once you’re already in the Schengen zone, there is no further passport control, including the French/Monaco border.
